[Request] Pokemon in Skyrim

[S4ur0n]

I am genuinely surprised I have not seen a mod that adds Pokemon to the world of Skyrim. I have seen one, but it included changing a skeever's color to yellow, adding red circles on his cheeks, and calling him a Pikachu. To me, that is just a color swap and not indicative of the Pokemon at all. I know it can be done right. Take a look at this My Little Pony mod for Skyrim.

They started with the model of the horse and built a new model on top of that, consistent with the My Little Pony characters. They even added their voices to make it more realistic. My idea is that why has that not been accomplished with Pokemon? I know, there are hundreds of Pokemon and only a couple handfuls of ponies. But one could narrow down the selection for these Pokemon like your Pikachu's, Gardevoir's, Lopunny's, and so on. It would be fairly interesting to see it if it could be done right. For instance, one could use the Fire Atronach model for Gardevoir. The constant levitation and hurling psychic energy at enemies. If that could be too difficult to create, one could just make armor that would allow the player to play as a Pokemon, well, the human sized ones that is. I use this mermaid mod to show that an armor that completely transforms the player into a different altogether character is possible.

I would just like to see some work done on bringing Pokemon into Skyrim. Something that requires a little more than just color swapping what is already present. Maybe someone is already hard at work on such a project. Or perhaps not. I just hope that it would be possible to see a Gardevoir or Lopunny in Skyrim or put on armor that allows one to become that Pokemon.

 

Just my thoughts.

Very valid point. Digimon in Skyrim would also be something I would love to see. You could have your Renamon, your Agumon, your Lillymon, and so forth. I imagine them as being either followers or summons. Or, like the armor mod I talked about, a suit of armor that you wear to turn you into your favorite Digimon.

they would have to be folloers pokemon would be summons since pokemon are kept in balls digimon arent there free runners

 

someone could rig up a pokemon mod by having a ball shaped object retexture it and have it so it summons a pokemon like the summon weapons thats in the game but it would need the creatures mod that has talk options like dismiss and banish banish would send it back into the pokeball

People probably haven't done a true one because you're dealing with an IP held by a company notorious for hardcore DMCA claims so people may be worried about that.


Aside from that, no idea why one hasn't been made yet.  I wouldn't mind seeing one, but I certainly can't do it since I'm no modeller/texturer merely someone in college for programming. Though I would suggest maybe look around on some of the Asian modding boards and it's possible one is buried there somewhere. 

Could also be a lack of people with talent for modelling and texturing that are willing to do a Pokemon mod too.

Bug darkconsole, he's working on something along these lines with his Untamed project.
